I close my eyes and pray
To travel far away
Beyond this wicked place
Run by a sickening race.

Where peace is a foreign word
Hunted like an animal herd
Shot. Injured. Killed.
Innocent blood is spilled.

Ignorant and careless are you
Who seem to misconstrue -
Take a second look now
And tell me how, how

How can you believe
When there is so much to grieve
That you are right
To pursue this fight.

Hold still and put down your guns
Take a second to think of your sons.
In their eyes, what do they see?
Your murderous killing spree.
